Harris, W. S. (William Shuler), 1865-

"A twentieth century allegory"


During their protracted stay at this division they visited the following
halls, each one devoted to a specific purpose:
Hall No. 3. "The Bible from a Literary Standpoint."
Hall No. 8. "The Best Literature for a Sunday School Class."
Hall No. 9. "The Best Literature for Sunday school Libraries."
Hall No. 13. "The Best Literature for a True Christian to Read."
Hall No. 16. "Literature for a Christian's 'Grip' when on a Vacation."
Hall No. 27. "The Sunday Newspaper and Other Publications."
Hall No. 38. "The Best Way of Conducting a Religious Newspaper."
Mr. World spent a day with his appreciative friend under the teaching
of Hall No. 3. The professors were exceptionally brilliant, and so won
the confidence of their many hearers that what they said seemed to
have more weight than even the Bible. They tried to demonstrate that
the literary style of the Bible was far below par.
When they entered Hall No. 8 they were surprised to see how large a
number of Sunday school workers and teachers were already there. The
meeting that day was held largely in the form of an open parliament,
and a discussion was in progress concerning the use of the Bible in
the class during the study of the lesson.
